What is the Most Popular Material for Cabinets in Virginia Beach?
The most common material for kitchen cabinets is wood, but that is a broad category for materials. Some woods are more durable than others, and some will provide a better look or increased durability. The most commonly used woods for cabinets, starting with those that are on the top of the list, include:
- White Oak
- Red Oak
- Birch
- Hickory
- Hard Maple
- Ash
- Pine
- Poplar
Choosing which material you want for your cabinets depends on grain and color. Both choices matter for the look and style you want in your Virginia Beach kitchen. Some species of wood have a more obvious grain pattern, which may benefit you if you want cabinets that are stained or left primarily natural. On the other hand, if you choose painted cabinets, you generally do not want to see a grain pattern.
Color also matters, of course, for cabinetry that will be treated with a sealer to showcase its natural color or stained to match a particular aesthetic. The color of wood for painted cabinets is not as important, although a lighter-colored wood can make it easier to produce a lighter-colored cabinet with fewer coats of paint.
What Are the Various Cabinetry Types?
Along with cabinet material and color, there are other considerations. The largest one is what type of cabinetry you want in your remodeled or new home. The style of cabinets generally matches the style of the house, but you can also make eclectic choices that fit your unique self-expression. When choosing your Virginia Beach home’s cabinetry, there is no right or wrong answer. There are a few different types of cabinets, including:
- Contemporary Cabinetry
- Raised Panel Cabinets
- Shaker Cabinets
- Traditional Cabinets
- Inset Cabinets
All of these options have their merits. They each have a look all their own, and which one you want can help you formulate a plan for the fixtures and appliances that will be part of your new kitchen.
